nbc's tracie potts joins us from washington with the latest. good morning, tracie. >> amara, good morning. what to do about taxes? the senate has confirmed what the house said, that this is not going to happen before you go to the polls in november. senate democrats got together, but could not agree on how to move forward. the issue is whether or not to preserve the bush tax cuts for everyone or just for the middle class and let taxes go up on the wealthy. it is a political hot potato headed into november, not one that the democrats now say they want to touch before you go to the polls. however, what they did back, a small business bill, $30 billion, a new fund to help small businesses get loans. this was mainly a democratic issue. the idea here is that if businesses have more cash, they'll hire people, buy equipment, expand and help pull this economy out of a slump. the gop called it a bailout. their plan is their new pledge to america. a government that's too big is something they say they want to get rid of if they are elected in november. t

san jose police are already using a similar system. for oakland police, they believe this will reduce accusations of police misconduct because the video and audio is recorded. other departments say people just behave better when they know they're being taped. opd is testing out about 15 of these units and are asking the city for 350 of them to the tune of $540,000, which seems curious on the surface since the city was just forced to layoff dozens of officers, but apparently there is federal funding available to help pay for it. christie smith, today in the bay. >> thanks. >>> an idaho man is facing felony charges after confessing to knowingly infecting people with the hiv virus. sheriff's detectives say he admitted to having sex with about 20 people and not telling them that he is hiv positive. he was already in jail on an unrelated charge when he admitted to having the affairs with people that he met on the internet and at various parks. authorities are now working to find other victims and so additional charges may be filed. >>> poli
